In Kari Granville’s article “A Couple of Cops, With a Twist” (Sept. 2), producer Rob Cohen and director John Badham found this wonderful screenplay, “The Hard Way.” And actor Michael J. Fox loved the unique story and actor James Woods thought the idea was fabulous, and throughout the article we learned all about Rob’s and John’s and Michael’s and James’ feelings and thoughts about this fantastic screenplay.

Only one thing was left out of the article: Never once did anyone mention the name of the person who wrote this wonderful, fabulous, unique screenplay.

I wonder what would happen if, suddenly, by some magic, the words on the script disappeared and Rob and John and Michael and James were left holding 120 blank pages. Would they be able to make their wonderful movie or would they be just sitting there quietly, with their fingers up their you-know-what?

A spokesman for the Badham/Cohen Group said that several people worked on the script and that the screenwriting credit has not been determined yet.
